My friend is a girl and wants to be better at games. She tries hard, and is decent at shooters and various other games, but she never feels that good. She gets down on herself because she is convinced, no matter what, that girls just can't be that great at video games. It makes her really depressed. Every time she sees a girl failing in game or being bad on a stream, she gets more and more disheartened. She wants so badly to be feared in games, as a player that you avoid because you know they'll beat you.
Do you guys have any inspiration for a girl trying to get better at video games? Like, well known streamers or competitive players or youtube channels with skilled girls.
>Do you guys have any inspiration for a girl trying to get better at video games? Well, there's my GF for example. She's super nerdy and always kicks my butt at Mario Kart :)
Grayson Cox
girls are garbage at anything competitive. sorry.
Dominic Morales
A friend of mine (female) is diamond 3 in LoL, which is pretty good. She plays at least 3 hours a day though. I think she just needs to practice more, like everyone else.
Gabriel Phillips
gaming is a (useless) skill that takes years to get right tell her to have fun and not to beat herself up too much
shit I have this one girl friend, she used to play Reach non-stop till her Xbox red ringed itself
Michael Allen
HAHAHAHAHA
Nathaniel James
It's just a game, sis.
Adam Williams
Thanks. Maybe I need to show her that fatality vid. I've been trying to get her to practice, but I think she's feeling like it's pointless because she has the same mindset as this
As long as she doesn't give up and, more importantly, learns from her failures as much as possible, she'll git gud in no time.
Pretty much any game can be simplified to a big chain of if-this-do-that, outside of technical skills like aiming yer gun.
Isaiah Bell
A girl will always be worse than a guy who puts in the same amount of effort. There is no way around that.
Colton Moore
Just fuck her already you cuck
Jonathan Cooper
I'm not interested in girls silly. Why else would I have a friend that is a girl? I'm still blown away by straight guys that have friends that are girls.
Isaac Perez
I'm not a big fan of this video, there were plenty of spills taken in the male competition you could probably make a similar montage of. However when you put the women's race side by side with the men's race, the overall difference level is staggering.
Camden Barnes
Girls are shit at everything except giving birth and eating jizz.
Jaxson Carter
Are there any sports where women are better than men?
Gavin Campbell
Find a game that she not only enjoys but is already sorta good at and have her practice with it. It's all about finding something they're good at. I have a lady friend who's piss at shooters but wreaks shit at MH and competitive Pokemon.
Also this: . Most people have been playing video games for their entire life, and if your GF is just starting out she's got some adjusting to do before becoming truly good. Best of luck to you man.

Chase Jenkins
Complaining
Nolan Martin
Fuck no.
Connor Adams
I'm a girl and I kind of feel this way. I like cooking and I'm pretty good at it. But the world champions like Gordon Ramsey are male. I think it's something about men's ability to focus on excellence in one area and the drive and will to achieve it that champions. The areas were girls excel is where 'best' is subjective like art.
Jacob Jones
>LoL >CSGO >WoW I hope you were trying to prove that they can't be good at games, because that's what you ended up accomplishing.
Jeremiah Reed
Most girls are just shit at videogames 'cuz they simply never want to get gud. From what I know, practice makes perfect even for girls. Simply play many games, various games, skillfull games and force yourself to beat them on the hardest difficulties, if not second hardest.
Atleast, I've done that and now I play vidya as if being gud was simply a given.
Lucas Watson
That British milf chef who's name I can't remember is a world champion at getting my cock diamond hard.

I'd need some source on that. I watched a bunch of olympic Archery this year and The women had consistently lower numbers than the men every single time. One of them even missed the target completely

That's the one.
John Sanchez
They do make some pretty fantastic art, you're right about that.
Bentley Powell
Why doesn't she just tries to be a better player instead of a better girl player ? The focus on sex and the unrealistic goals given that she doesn't want to invest serious time in the medium is the reason why cunts don't get far
Isaiah Price
You weren't joking about how fast she gets a man diamond hard
Aiden Evans
There are many women in those areas that are also considered great.
They don't need to be the greatest to be worthwhile.
Jackson Johnson
I guess Coach was right saying not to have sex before a game. Built up testosterone does help
Michael Hernandez
They're good at those but they still can't hold a candle to men.

Who cares if she plays on easy or only plays easier games. Games are meant to be fun, it's not something you have to be great at.
John Reed
>oppress women for millennia >complain that women don't make great achievements Female authors had to publish their books under their husband's name for centuries, you know? As far as classical music goes, there's plenty of female musicians that outperform men at auditions.
Dylan Lee
Protip for her. Most people suck at games. Well not suck, but are pretty average in the broad scheme. She is probally better than what she thinks if shes that interested in getting better. If she can't find a half decent streamer, she should give it a go. Betas will give her a boost and she might be able to use that monentum

Floor gymnastics? Synchronised Swimming? Figure skating? I really don't know. As far as I remember, Equestrian is the only olympic sport which isn't segregated by gender, so you could maybe make an argument for women being equal. But better across the board? Don't know.

Scientifically proven to be the least pure. They're still more tolerable than men who like girls, though.
Easton Wood
I like other girls, what do you think about me?
Jonathan Walker
Honestly, and I know i'm going to get called some kind of SJWKEKLORD or w/e but I think it comes down to the fact that we grew up on video games, because it's seen as a more acceptable thing for boys to do.
Where as most chicks I know never played games when they were younger, presumably because their parents viewed that as a boy thing.
My wife is the same way, she has a steam account with like a hundred games, and really likes RPGs, sims and such but it took me like two/three hours to teach her to move and jump at the same time in portal 2.
I feel like this is probably why easier games seem alarmingly popular with chicks, Dragonage 2, Bioshock, etc games that are so easy that they essentially move the concept of a game over.
Isaac Bennett

My fiance is better at me than pretty much all games.
Beats me at Mario Kart online.
I can't do jack to her in any Halo game.
She's more creative than me in Minecraft.
She's gotten way further in GTA V online, making millions when I struggle to get a couple hundred thousand. She beat GTA V story faster than I could.
She's always a scoreboard leader when playing PVP in Destiny and gets the hard raids completed in their first week of launch. She's the one carrying her friends typically too.
I'm only average at games, but she's pretty fucking good.
She doesn't attention whore and is disgusted by the concept of streamers using facecam. (And she hates SJWs, feminists and white knights)
She's an autistic cripple though, so games are all she has whilst she waits on a foot operation. I've agreed to let her have Destiny background music at our wedding next month.

Because when Mario Kart 8 came out we'd play 2 hours of ranked online together each night and I could never get into first unless she got nuked by other players.
Not at all. We've been together for over 5 years now and I really appreciate that my wife to be appreciates games, it's a hobby we can enjoy together and she's not some bimbo that just tells people she likes games for attention, she's legitimately decent.
We did a co op play through of borderlands 2 a few months ago and we got about half way through before we got distracted by other games we wanted to play more, but that shit was fucking fun.
Austin Wilson
Who is the girl in the OP image anyway? I feel like I've seen her before in other pictures with the same headset
Elijah Diaz
If anyones the degenerate here it's you. Go choke on your own dick or something.
Aaron Cox
Had. They don't have to anymore. How come none still have excelled yet? It doesn't take thousands of years to recover from these kinds of restrictions. A couple of generations should have been enough and yet the situation is still the same. People recovered from world wars faster than women have from the oppression of patriarchy. That makes me consider the fact that no recovery has taken place at all and they are just naturally inferior. They can be construction workers and coal miners and steel smelters or carpenters but I don't see them hurrying to face these difficult challenges.

Zachary Cooper
Tell her it's okay not to be a beast competitive monster.
Unless she was aiming to compete in big league, where she literally has no chance since Koreans would wipe the floor with her, then being a gaming beast is a useless and time consuming skill.
She should use that time to learn something productive, like art, music, programming, maybe use those to make her own game or walking simulator.
I played games since I was 3 years old. I am now 23 and am still utterly shit at games. AI bosses wipe the floor with me, playing online I get rekt 9/10 times and generally I end up as an absolute average. I can finish a game but it takes forever.
I still love games and would play them till I drop dead. So tell her to chill, being competitive doesn't matter.
It's having fun that does.
Luke Davis
>biscum >comparable to pure homos
Matthew Hughes
It all falls apart if the person can only have fun when winning or succeeding.
William Bailey
Next time she's playing something with an asshole complaining about how bad their team is, tell her to question if she really wants to be like that guy that badly
You want to git gud at playing video games? Research and repetition like winning is your dayjob. Good luck when you get burned out because literally every game has someone better than you. Want to have fun playing video games? Then just try to play as best you can and don't make winning into some mystical requirement for happiness. I play fairly regularly with those kinds of people and sometimes they are downright insufferable. Sometimes you lose, and then the next round starts
Thomas Edwards
post yfw you're not a woman
Landon Brown
This is factually accurate.
I wanted to get gud at CS. Started out in Gold Nova 1 and worked my way to MG2. Even at a slightly above average rank like that I could feel myself getting irate at others decisions. The higher in rank I grew the more I could feel myself having less fun.
Competitive gaming is only fun when your competing with your own skill. Like Tetris or something.
Much more fun to play games with a friend and just goof around.

Well what most people dont understand is that playing team games with random people is completely anti-competitive.
Either play 1on1 games or have a fixed team if you want to be competitive. Raging at a randomly thrown together team is just the biggest nonsense though.
"HURRR I PLAY WITH RANDOM PEOPLE EVERY MATCH WHY ARE THESE DIFFERENT PEOPLE NOT CONSISTENLY SHOWING THE SAME PERFORMANCE LEVEL EVERY SINGLE MATCH!!!"

Adam Baker

Nathan Clark
some people cannot be good at games just like at other things in life. women especially are at a disadvantage because they have lower reaction times, inferior 3d spatial awareness, lesser hand eye coordination, etc. the best players in the world have been playing for many, many years at just one game though so if she does that she can still be somewhat near the top.
Carson Cook
They're not more at a disadvantage than anything but pro males though. Just because you're male, doesn't mean you're automatically better than any girl. A girl who has played just as much, etc. Will be about just as good as any guy. Not to mention, luck can be at someone's side through human mistakes. It matters only on a professional field, otherwise it's not of any significance. A girl can still be very good regardless, but may not be able to compete with the best.
Although, I do think the gap in gaming is smaller than in sports such as soccer where a female pro team is easily beaten by a bunch of male kids. It's just that there are very, very few females in gaming that actually played enough to be good at like, anything and actually understand how the games works.
Wyatt Roberts
There's zero evidence females can be good at video games and all substantiated research suggests they should be poor at learning and performing in them.
There's only a few extremely rare cases of top tier females performing on the level of moderately skilled males, there are no highly skilled females. There's no evidence that females can perform at a high level, and the evidence we do have suggests they will never be able to.
>top player since 2013 >"on the level of moderately skilled males"

>Just because you're male, doesn't mean you're automatically better than (almost) any girl. yes it does, you were simply raised with a marxist religious belief that you cant let go of. shedding a religion that was pounded into you as a child is a very difficult thing to do.

Parker Garcia

Jason Kelly
"Suggests" due to lack of data? Not everyone becomes popular and enough very good people just remain in the shadows.
Of course it's extremely rare to have females perform at the tier males do. The gaming industry has always been 99%male, 1% female for a very long time (it's still about the same when it comes to actual gaming). Even if only 20% of both genders may have moderately skilled people, the difference will still be a million males against a handful of females. If you take the amount that actually comes forward, it is even less.
There are highly skilled females in gaming, but there are so very few that it almost goes unnoticed. A moderately skilled male is quite the joke anyway. They still play like shit.

While horses are obviously sentient creatures the pacing and direction is often under control of of the rider. A good horse with a shit rider can often be beaten by a mediocre horse with a good rider.

Wyatt Murphy
Thinking she's bad will hold her back.
You need to believe it's genuinely possible for you to make it.
Think of it like jumping over a fence. Initially it seems impossible, but upon walking up to the fence and really thinking about it, it isn't. Believe you can jump it, and you can. Hold back, and your foot will clip the top and you faceplant.
She also needs to actually play games. She can't expect to get good watching streamers.
Charles Parker
Women, typically have small hands so they only can play on consoles using the small controllers they come with.

Angel Hall

Chase Moore
Tell her to git gud
Jeremiah Brooks
Is not easy ofc. It doesnt matter who you are, there will be allways someone better than you, and you have to deal with it. Tell your friend that she needs to play games to have fun, and not to be the best. Its really simple.
And tell her that gender doesnt matter.
Josiah Long
Tell her to stop relying on that mental crutch.
There's no biological requirement to getting good at games, or most anything else for that matter. The only thing you need to be competitive is passion. The drive to win and reach new heights in your own ability should be the only driving force you need.
The motivation to constantly improve should become part of who you are if you ever want to be "good". I'm good at almost every game I play because i'm constantly dissecting the game mechanics themselves and my mental state as I play them. Games provide an opportunity for me to learn more about myself and how I approach things in my mind, my reactions and counter reactions.
And tell her that losing is a good thing. Getting outplayed presents an opportunity for improvement. When you stop losing one of two things will happen, you will either stagnate or become the best of the best.
Hunter Flores
But it doesn't bring in money like esports.
Colton Lopez
Untrue, the gap is much smaller than it is in most other sports though. A top female archer will dominate most male archers. There isnt the 'world number 1 woman gets smashed by world 250 man' like in tennis etc
